Energy, Work, Power, and
Mechanical Advantage
Intro
1. What would happen to the force of
gravity if you doubled the mass of one
object and tripled the distance it is away
from the other.
2. What would happen to the tension in a
rope (equal to Fc) it your doubled the
radius of the rope you were swinging
around?
Work
• Work is done when a force acts on an
object and moves it a certain distance.
• W=Fd
• The unit for work is the
Joule which is a N·m
d = 2.5 m
• Work = net force x distance
500 N of force applied
F= 500 N
d = 2.5 m
W=Fd
W= (500)(2.5) = 1250 J
d = 2.5 m
Ex A. How much work is being done by a
weightlifter below that applies 500
Newtons of force lifting a mass 2.5
meters?
500 N of force applied
Ex B. How much work is being done by a
weightlifter below that applies 1000
Newtons of force but does not move the
mass?
F= 1000 N
d=0m
W=Fd
W= (1000)(0) = 0 J
Work
• W=Fd
• No work is done if the
object does not travel a
distance
Power
• Power is the rate at which work is done.
Work divided by time
or
Fd
P = _____
t
Unit of Power
• The unit of power would be joules per
second or the watt
• A watt equals one joule of energy in
one second
W= 1250J
t= 0.5s
P= W/t
P= 1250/0.5 = 2500 watts
d = 2.5 m
Ex C. A weightlifter who does 1250 Joules of
work in 0.5 s applies how much power?
500 N of force applied
Ex D. A weightlifter pulls with 500N of force
lifting an object 2.5m in 1.5s. How much
power did he apply?
d = 2.5 m
F= 500 N
d = 2.5 m
t= 1.5 s
500 N of force applied
P= (Fd)/t = ((500)(2.5))/1.5 = 833 watts

Machines
• Simple Machine- a device used to
magnify forces or simply change the
direction of forces.
Conservation of energy:

direction of force.
• If properly used a pulley system can
multiply force
Pulley System
Example Simple Machines
• Incline Plane- A surface at a slope
• Sliding a load up an incline requires less force than
lifting it up but you have to apply the force over a
longer distance.
All simple machines follow the conservation of energy in an

an object, there is no change in
rotation

closer the fulcrum to balance

Center of gravity (CG)
• The center of gravity of a uniform object is
the geometric center.
Non-uniform Objects CGs
• When an object is thrown it will rotate
around its center of gravity
Ex. Q: What would be the weight of the
block below be to balance out the torques
below?
• In this problem the meter sticks weight does not effect
force since its center of gravity is at the fulcrum (d=0)
• Do not just read the meter stick, determine how far the
mass is from the fulcrum.
Ex. Q: What would be the weight of the
block below be to balance out the torques
below?
An objects mass is applied from its center of
gravity.

of gravity at the 50cm mark, what would be the
weight of the block below be to balance out the
torques?
2N

Mechanical Energy
• Mechanical energy- the energy due to the
position of something or the movement of
something.
• Two types of Mechanical energy
– Kinetic Energy
– Potential Energy
• The unit for all energy and work is the Joule
Potential Energy (PE)
• Potential Energy- Energy that is stored
– Elastic Potential Energy- caused by a stretched or
compressed spring
– Chemical Energy- energy in a substance (energy of
position at a subatomic level released when electric charges within and
between molecules are altered)
– Gravitational Potential Energy- energy due to an
elevated position
Elastic Potential Energy
• Elastic potential energy = (F)(d)
• Elastic potential energy equals the work done
to store it
• PE = (F)(d)
Ex S: How much potential energy
is in a bow pulled back 0.40m with a force of 50N?
Elastic Potential Energy
Ex S: How much potential energy
is in a bow pulled back 0.40m with a force of
50N?
Gravitational Potential Energy
• Gravitational potential energy is also equal to the work done
to store it
• Gravitational potential energy = weight x height
• PE= Fwh
or
PE= mgh
The more height or more mass the more PE

Kinetic Energy (KE)
• Kinetic Energy- Energy of an object in motion

Work Energy Theorem
• Whenever work is done, energy changes.
• Work = ΔKE
• Work equals a change in kinetic energy
• Net force x distance = kinetic energy
• Fd = ½ mv2

force is required to stop the car if it was
traveling 12.5 m/s and took 10m to stop?
Fd = ½ mv2

Fd = ½ mv2
Conservation of Energy
• Law of conservation
of energy- energy
cannot be created or
destroyed. It can be
transformed from one
form into another, but
the total energy never
changes.
Conservation of Energy
• All potential energy stored in a spring will be
transformed into other forms.
• Part becomes KE and the rest is lost to the
surrounding as heat.
Conservation of energy formula
PEbefore + KEbefore = PEafter + KEafter + Heat lost
Formula in an ideal situation heat lost:
PEbefore + KEbefore = PEafter + KEafter
or
mghbefore + ½ mv2before = mghafter + ½ mv2after
Mass is not needed in the
conservation of energy formula
mghbefore + ½ mv2before = mghafter + ½ mv2after
